'''Project Management''' requires both [[wikipedia:skill#hard skill|hard skills]] and [[wikipedia:soft skills|soft skills]]. Hard skills include file management and team organization. The soft skills, which are arguably the more important, include facilitating good communication and resolving conflicts. These are vital for our community projects to achieve a quality level comparable to professional projects, which have monetary funding and local physical presence. Our big and diverse community can make up for these disadvantages of being non-commercial and working remotely from each other with our dedication, time investment, and passion. The goal of project management is to make sure that individual team members are able to reach their highest potential.

Project Management, soft skills, are hardly present at first glance. But only transparent and fluent communication, organization, dispatching conflicts and managing files allow such a community project to achieve a quality level comparable to professional team projects with monetary background and local physical presence. Our big and diverse community can make up for these disadvantages of being non-commercially and working remotely from each other with their dedication, time investment, and passion. Such a project requires basic skills to make sure, our efforts are not lost in the process by invisible walls.

Project Management requires both hard skills and soft skills. Hard skills include file management and team organization. The soft skills, which are arguably the more important, include facilitating good communication and resolving conflicts. These are vital for our community projects to achieve a quality level comparable to professional projects, which have monetary funding and local physical presence. Our big and diverse community can make up for these disadvantages of being non-commercial and working remotely from each other with our dedication, time investment, and passion. The goal of project management is to make sure that individual team members are able to reach their highest potential.
